Mission Disaster

Mission Disaster

S16 E7: During the Gulf War, a military KC-135 finds itself in peril during a late-night refueling assignment near enemy territory. A spectacular blowout has taken out two of its engines, and the crew is forced to abort the mission and attempt an emergency landing...with no radio support. Miraculously, the pilots and aircraft survive. Investigators suspect the damage may have come from enemy fire, but when they discover no scorch marks or explosive residue, they struggle to determine what kind of force could tear the left engines off the plane.
